I think I understand the popularity of Kydex holsters and mag pouches.I have kydex gear myself,it's rather new and has some appeal,however,does any body care that it's kinda noisy when gun clears "leather"? Also what's with the screws? Seems anything that has a screw is someday gonna have that screw fall out and then what?,your concealed pistol drops to the floor.Maybe these concerns are excessive but I think a good belt scabbard done in horsehide leather is quiet,100% reliable and conceals better.
